For my first photogram, i used a jagged heart shaped perfume bottle and a pair of headphones, as a way of showing confusion. The photogram is meant to say 'listen to your heart'. Displaying mood or emotion in photograms was the theme of our task, so as well as this photogram, i attempted to display other feelings such as childish, sadness, insecurity and adventurous. The 'childish' photograms consist of ribbon and coiled paper, the sad photogram consists of headphones and coiled paper, the insecure photogram consists of lace, a bracelet, a gun and shells, and the adventurous photogram consists of lace, a pocket watch necklace, shells and rings. These are my photograms...

This photogram has a sort of dreamy feel to it. I like the misty effect that has been created. I can't quite make out what the materials that have been used are, but that means that i can give my own interpretation as to what they are.

This is quite a dynamic photogram, my eye went straight to the white circle first, but then scanned the background. at first i thought the splatter was all there was to it but with a closer look i found other various objects such as lightbulbs. I would really like to try this in my course work.

This photogram was made using crystal objects. I like the patterns that the crystal has reflected onto the paper, and the way that some of the patterns overlap each other as that gives the photogram depth and texture. In one of my own photograms i used a glass perfume bottle which had a similar effect.
